Going from 4k 200fps to 4k 250fps in games is gonna be so worth $3000.... /s
Seriously though, what is out there that is actually taxing, hell what is out there that actually makes use of the horsepower inside of a 4090!? Cause all those PC games don't look a huge difference to shit running on a PS5, if it was a similar leap from say a Switch to PS5 I'd be considering ditching playstation and building a decent one, but I ain't seeing it..

Got just recently a 4080 Super.
I am hoping for new or advanced features which are also working on the 4000 Series

My 3090 is getting pretty long in the tooth, I got it launch year. Yeah, I'm ready. Lay that $2k price for the 5090 on me Jensen, I can afford it because I have your company's stock!

Will the 40- series price drop when 50-series come out?
I'm not familiar with pc so still need to know should I wait to buy a 40-series or just buy 1 now.

For a 1080 60fps laptop buyer, the 4 series power efficiency will look mighty appetizing after the price drop.

If(!) the rumors are true amd will come up with new Gpus which should have the performance of a 4070 TI Super/4080 for about 500/600$.
This could cause Nvidia to lower the prices of their 4000 series cards.
The only question is by how much.
Because Nvidia cards still have the advantage of Dlss and Frame Generation.

Will grab the 5090 along with a new power supply. Not planning to upgrade from 5800x3d, still going very strong.

I'm ready! *Spongebob voice*
I've been holding on to this 1080 since it released and now I'm finally going to get a 5080. Seriously considered a 90, but I mostly play indies.
This old soldier still got spunk in him, delivers 60fps in everything I throw at it. With some compromises of course, but Ratchet & Clank Ripped a Fart, Returnal worked great and I have 273h in Helldivers 2 with pretty smooth gameplay.

Only with RT you still have a good card

Same boat just without the shares sadly. The 3090 handles most games I play with reasonable flare. I'm more interested in AI performance these days though rather than strictly gaming.

If i had a 4090 the choice would be much easier.

I bought the RTX4080S knowing that the RTX5080 will be released soon in Q1 2025. Availability will be scarce (because Nvidia is now focusing on the professional market) and prices will be well above MSRP, so the RTX5080 is really not that exciting to me and anything below this card will not be much better than my 4080S (the 5070 will probably still have 12GB VRAM).
I'm not a fan of incremental upgrades. I have been using my old GTX1080 and 1080ti for many years and only recently (TLOU and UE5 games) made me realize it was finally time to upgrade (I could no longer game at 1440p 60fps).
Games runs so well on my PC (thanks to AI I get 4K 120fps even in extremely demanding games like Hellblade 2) so I'm sure my RTX 4080S will still last me till the end of PS5 generation. My next GPU will be probably RTX7800 and it should last entire PS6 generation as well

I have a 4090 and zero willpower, I would love to wait until the 60 series to upgrade but unfortunately i think i probably will get a 5090

I am going to complain about Nvidia’s prices and still buy their damn GPUs.I'm looking forward to people crying about prices for things they were never going to buy anyway.
Dreading to see how much they charge for 5090 and 5080. Thinking $2K and $1299.
I also can’t wait to see another 5060 that should have been a 5050.

Nah. My 4070 Super plays all the shit already, and I don't mind giving up on either 4K or RTX depending on the game.
So unless some crazy games start coming out demanding a 50XX series GPU, I think I'm skipping.
Plus I'm saving for a new car.

That thing should go the hall of fame of greatest GPUs ever.

I hope to upgrade from a 3080 Ti
But @ ultrawide 1440p, I don't see the game on the horizon that will kneecap my setup? Wukong after optimized settings was ~60 fps and I don't see a game on the horizon dethroning this for a while.
Maybe a 5070 or something.
Squadron 42 coming out 2025 would probably push me to upgrade

I would like to do that but seeing my 3080Ti a bit sluggish with RT in some games.
My biggest concern are the rumors of some outrageous power requirements even on 5080. Hopefully undervolting can help.
Edit: I miss my 1080Ti. That was an awesome card.

I'm looking to buy a new laptop pretty soon, and I want the latest GPUs after skipping 40-series. Could be anywhere between 5060 and 5080 depending on pricing and performance.

Honestly I would be more excited if Intel presents their new cards. Don’t get me wrong, I am still happy with my 4080 and don’t plan to upgrade anytime soon, but I just hope Intel is closing the gap more and more and NVIDIA and AMD must offer more competitive prices, when I finally need a new card.

It will be interesting to see VRAM amounts on these cards. You really want 16GB and mobile GPUs skimp on that.

5090 for me. Was gonna wait for at least the 60 series, but fuck it.

Probably depends on what model you would be looking at. nVidia usually slashes if not ends production of the desktop cards when the new ones come out. Thing is, I suspect the 4070 GDDR6 was introduced because it (and any cards cheaper) are going to be around a bit longer. It would make sense if Blackwell doesn't support GDDR6X, only GDDR6 or 7.

nVidia killed the Radeon star.
Not really, but I was listening to the song and came up with this stupidity. So I looked at the first GPU related thread that I stumble upon to post it. Sorry.

Going to make the jump from my 3080 Ti, but I hope I can actually get an FE. It's super annoying that you can only get them through Best Buy, and they are always seemingly sold out. It's been like this for years now. I only got my 3080 Ti because EVGA (RIP) smartly had a queue where you just paid and waited.

Will default to AMD after having had my first positive experience with a Sapphire card not long ago until Nvidia delivers acceptable open source Linux drivers.

This.
I have always found you get most bang for your buck by waiting 2 cycles to upgrade from GPU to GPU with NVIDIA.
I went from RTX 2080 to RTX 4080 - huge gains.
I doubt the RTX 5080 add much; I'll just wait for the RTX 6080 instead.
Besides, it seems like we're going to be stuck with the PS5 and PS5 Pro for quite a while. I'm sure the RTX 4080 will guaruntee 4K60 (+/- DLSS) for this entire gen.

Capacity hasn't changed at all except the lowest tier has 8 now instead of 6. There is apparently also a second model with 16 GB, probably the 5080 Ti Laptop.
